Proceeding contribution from Rob Wilson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 4 March 2016. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Parliament Elections Bill.
European Parliament Elections Bill
I will in one minute.
There is no threshold of votes that a party or candidate must achieve to win a seat in a region. The seats are assigned to party candidates according to the order in which the candidates are displayed on the ballot paper. That order is predetermined by the party before the election. I give way to the hon. Gentleman.
